See how it flatters her square face; without doubt, if you have a similar square face, this trend will look good on you.

HOW TO HAVE THIS SHORT HAIRSTYLE?

Cut your hair short: This short bob is not on the same level, the behind part is shorter than the rest of the hair. So to archive this, you will need some one to help you trim your behind hair. Then the hair on the sides has a sharp edge.

Condition and wet your hair: As you can see the lady in the photo above, her short asymmetric bob looks shinny and healthy. This is because it is well moist and it ‘s super thick. Don’t use a blower to dry this type of hair because it might wipe out all the moisture, I suggest you opt for the towel method. Also make sure that you avoid hair conditioning / shampoo products with sodium chloride, because this chemical will leave your hair dry.

Comb your hair with a small toothed comb: Comb your hair downwards towards the jaws, if the hair has less moisture, try to spray it as you comb it downwards. After this process, you will see that some splits at the edge of your hair, trim them off so that your short bob looks neat.

Side the bang: Not every woman with a bob has a bang, but if you have one like the lady in the photo above, you can also pull it to the sides.

THINGS YOU WILL NEED:

If you plan to do this style by your self while at home, you might need some of these products. However, if you fail to style your own hair, of fail to get a friend to help you out, please go to the salon and get a perfect makeover.

To keep this style for long, you need to moist your hair regularly and trim all lose ends to make it neat.

HOW TO STYLE:

Damp your hair: For a great effect, you need to keep your hair moist, so wash your short hair clean and apply a volumizing lotion to give your short hair a thick look. Please, remember to dry your hair with a towel before applying any cream.

Cut your hair super short: As you can see in the photo above, the lady has super short hair, so you will need to cut your hair up to that level. Women with square face shapes look fabulous with super short hair, so you don’t have to worry about your looks.

Use a medium hold gel: If you look closely to the lady in the photo above, her strands are standing alone, to maintain your short hair in that style, you need to use a holding gel to make each strand stiff but soft.

Comb your hair: Use a wide-toothed comb to style your short hair. You can start from the middle and comb your hair to the sides just like the lady above.
